Hamed never expected that one hundred million US dollars would simply be nothing more than a small token of appreciation to Charlie.He was so touched that he choked as he sobbed and said, “Brother, you… you’re indeed my great benefactor. My limp leg was already healed thanks to your magical medicine, but I really would not have expected that you would still give me such a large sum of money to support me. I truly do not know what I can do to repay your kindness…”Charlie laughed as he said, “Acquaintance is equivalent to destiny. The fact that we were acquainted means that we were brought together by fate. Since we were fated to meet, it is only right for me to do something.”As he spoke, Charlie said again, “By the way, brother, since you have this sum of money now, I wonder what your plans are, then?”Hamed did not hesitate as he said, “Brother, to tell you the truth, ever since my leg was broken, I had already lost a lot of talents in my team. I never had the opportunity to rep

“Moreover, as soon as you have reverse-slope fortifications, it would be even more difficult for the other party to bombard or launch an attack on your base. Even if they could break into the valley, your soldiers would be able to cover the entire area with firepower from the reverse-slope fortifications from halfway up the mountain. That way, the opponent would never be able to come out alive.”As soon as Hamed, who was on the other end of the line, heard this, his eyes lit up instantly.Meanwhile, Charlie continued, “As long as you strengthen your defenses and turn yourself into an iron bucket, they will certainly give up on dealing with you and choose to go to war with other opposition forces instead when they realize that they will not be able to defeat you. You should also try not to take the initiative to launch an attack. Instead, you should simply hide in your own base to defend yourself when the enemy comes, and attack when the enemy is retreating. That way, you would not on

The relatively slow military development, weak military strength, and low military quality were the most common problems in some small war-torn countries.There was a huge disparity in the economic strength between the countries, and the disparity in their military strength was even more shocking.Hamed himself was not from a real military school. In addition, he was from a relatively backward and chaotic environment, so he did not have a strategic mind at all.The only strategy he could think of was to live as long as possible.The reason why his army had not been wiped out in the encirclement and suppression two days ago was also due to errors in the government’s intelligence. They had thought that the village was just a small stronghold, but they did not expect it to be Hamed’s base camp. Moreover, Hamed’s base was easily defendable and difficult to attack. So, that was the reason why their attack had failed.However, the fact that it was easy to defend and difficult to attack

Hamed hurriedly asked, “Brother, what about the second and third phases, then?”Charlie said, “The second phase is for you to double the number of your fortifications. You have to make sure that at least half of your soldiers will be able to hide directly in the permanent fortifications. That way, even if your opponent is going to launch a fierce and intensive artillery and firearms attack, the lives of your soldiers will certainly be preserved in these permanent fortifications.”“As for the third phase, you need to make it so that these soldiers can survive in these permanent fortifications for a very long time. You would have built even more fortifications, and you’ll have to build it bigger and bigger each time. Finally, you should ensure that there is internal communication on the fortifications on each mountain. Your fortifications can not only be used for defensive purposes or just to ensure your survival but they can also be used to store strategic supplies. When this is achie

When he heard Charlie saying that there was still a problem that he had to deal with immediately, Hamed hurriedly asked, “Brother, what other problem are you talking about?”Charlie said, “When I went to your place the last time, I realized that your base depends on diesel generators to generate power.”“That’s right.” Hamed said, “Diesel generator sets are fairly convenient to use, but the cost is just a little high.”Charlie said, “It’s not just a little high, but the cost is actually very high. The cost is at least several times more than coal-fired power!”Hamed hurriedly said, “I’ve been implementing the electricity-saving strategy here. During the daytime, we do not use, or we only use very little electricity. The ordinary soldiers only use electricity for basic lighting at night. So, our overall electricity consumption is not that high, and the cost is still acceptable.”Charlie retorted, “It is obvious that you did not think about the long term. If you have a dozen or even

As he spoke, Hamed laughed as he said, “Luckily, I happen to know a friend who is in the construction industry in Iraq. He has many construction workers under him, and he has long gotten accustomed to life with a constant war going on back in Iraq. As long as I give him enough remuneration, they would not refuse even if I were to ask them to go and dig a hole on the moon. I’ll contact him shortly and ask him to send some men over as soon as possible!”Charlie said, “It’s good that you have this connection, then. In fact, this kind of permanent fortification that I’m talking about does not cost too much, nor does it require the application of any great technology. You can find a way to look for an old Oskian movie called ‘Battle on the Peak’ to learn and understand more about this. This movie will certainly be the best teaching material for your current situation. This is because you're also facing highland warfare, and there is very little difference in the weapons and equipment that

Charlie knew very well that an investment with a truly high return was no different from gambling.The risk would be high, but the profit would be even greater when the bet was won.The fact that he was currently making a moderate investment in Hamed this time was almost equivalent to his mother’s investment in those start-up companies in Silicon Valley back then.Only a small price had to be paid to invest in them, but as soon as they succeeded in the future, the investor would be able to reap huge profits and returns.Although Hamed’s armed forces were not a company, he was also a project with great developmental potential. If he were to succeed in the future, there would certainly be inexhaustible benefits. Therefore, Charlie was also investing for the future by investing more energy and providing advice and support to Hamed at this time.Moreover, his current investment was nothing more than a Healing Pill and some advice on strategic experiences. Not only that, the one hundre

Charlie looked at Rosalie before he said, “Rosalie, give Mr. Cameron your mother’s contact information before you go back to your room to rest.”“Okay!”***Meanwhile, at Moncolne, in the northeast.This small city was one of the coldest places in Oskia. Even though it was already the end of the first month, the lowest temperature in Moncolne could still reach negative seventeen to eighteen degrees, which was almost equivalent to the temperature of the freezer compartment in a refrigerator.During the coldest time of winter, the temperature here could reach about negative fifty degrees.The Harker family was one of the four major martial arts families in Oskia, and the Harker family was rooted in this county-level city with a population of less than one hundred thousand people.The ancestors of the Harker family were not native to Moncolne.They originated from the Johnstul Peninsula. During the ancient dynasty, they were a well-known martial arts family from the Johnstul Pen

Later, after Charlie told Jeremiah over the phone about the joint venture with the Ackers to establish Curtis Autos, the old man was awash with tears, especially after Charlie told him that it was Keith who suggested it. After all, Curtis was his favorite son whose death he could never really get over. Moreover, he once believed that only his family mourned Curtis while the Ackers never did, and he held a grudge over his son's passing. As such, he was surprised that Keith held such great respect toward his late son and didn't hesitate to say yes when Charlie invited him to Aurous Hill to sign an agreement with the Ackers.Still, Charlie wasn't in a hurry to arrange for a specific time, and he was going to let the Ackers sort out the human resources of Godot Autos over a few days. It still wouldn't be too late by then.Moreover, he was keen to allow the buzz to have time to grow so that the automotive industry would be astounded by the joint project between the Ackers and the Wade

Christian was the first to exclaim in approval, "Yes! Curtis Autos sounds wonderful! It has my vote!""Seconded!" Kaiden nodded, pumping the air with his right fist. "I've looked up to Curtis the most, and I absolutely agree with naming the company after him!"Jaxson was nodding too. "Me too!""Yes!" Lulu chirped.Yolden couldn't help agreeing as well. "Curtis Autos is definitely a good name!"Merlin raised his hand gingerly as well. "Quit it with your flattery already," Keith chuckled, and he turned toward Charlie solemnly. "In the end, Curtis is Charlie's father, and the final decision goes to him!"Charlie's eyes were welling up with tears—his parents had been gone for almost three decades, yet he had never thought of dedicating anything to their memory.As such, Keith's suggestion to use Curtis's name for the car company left him thrilled. After all, wouldn't his father's soul be honored if Curtis Autos rocked the country, maybe even the world?With that in mind, he nodd

Charlie also had to agree that this was an opportunity to formally reconcile the Wades and the Ackers.While he couldn't reveal himself just yet, the Wades and the Ackers had been in-laws for years. Even if they had had a dispute for the longest time, restoring good relations made sense now that the Ackers had come to Oskia, and it wouldn't arouse any suspicion.That was why Charlie agreed to it without hesitation, even making a mental note to invite his paternal grandfather, Jeremiah, to Aurous Hill.The old geezers could meet up and clear the air while deciding on the partnership.Yolden was prepared to resign as a professor as well so that he could help the Ackers and Charlie fully develop their automotive company.With a general direction planned, he asked everyone, "Since we're creating a new brand, has anyone come up with a name?"No one was feeling inspired at that moment, but that was when Lulu, who had been silent throughout, said, "Since Charlie and our family are worki

Neither Charlie nor the Ackers expected Yolden's insight to cover all corners.In fact, it felt like the man had a blueprint ready and was only waiting for the time to put it to use.That was why everyone was immensely approving of Yolden and wanted no other man for the job of CEO.Kaeden smiled, "Well, since everyone has agreed, let's put this to rest as soon as possible—this will be a joint investment between our family and the Wades, and Professor Hart will take the post of CEO. Let's all do our best to make this a good one!"Yolden also made up his mind, deciding that he didn't want to let slip a chance to realize his ambitions. "I'll resign from the university after my honeymoon trip. It probably shouldn't be long, and I can get involved in early preparations via teleconference."Charlie nodded. "Then, we can have Uncle Kaeden stay on schedule while I'll ask the Wades to send a representative over to sign a memorandum for the investment."Keith smiled and nodded. "You should

Charlie hadn't been born and raised in Aurous Hill, but he still started living here at the age of eight and was more attached to this place than Eastcliff.If he was going to take part in this automotive investment with the Ackers, he naturally found Aurous Hill the ideal location.Not only would it create a huge number of jobs for Aurous Hill, but it would also rake in much economic flow for the region.Yolden also nodded at his suggestion. "If the first plant is meant to cover the demand of the entire local market, there's no reason for a coastal plant. Aurous Hill stands at an intersection between the north and the south, so transportation is convenient. It's also killing two birds with one stone, as Mr. Wade is fond of the city."Charlie couldn't help but agree. "I won't lie—Aurous Hill has been good to me, and I hope to give back. Nothing's better than succeeding in that respect."Yolden spread his hands, "Heavy industries are certainly ideal to contribute to Aurous Hill's e

Yolden had actually been researching new energy for a while—in fact, it was when Tesla's first car models were produced.He was passionate about the subject and had his own opinions as well as ambitions, but he was busy teaching, so he couldn't realize any of it.But was this not a golden opportunity tailor-made for him?Seeing that Yolden was clearly interested, Charlie turned toward Kaeden, "Actually, the professor is getting married soon. There's no way we'd split up newlyweds so soon after the wedding, right? So, is it possible to set up base in Aurous Hill instead?""Not a problem!" Kaeden replied without hesitation. "Our family is planning to return to Oskia anyway, and everyone knows about Ashley and Curtis. So, why don't we invest in this enterprise alongside the Wades and have the base set up in Aurous Hill? And then bring Godot under as a subsidiary?"Turning to Yolden, he continued, "By the way, Godot's plant is already in the province—barely 100 miles from Aurous Hill,

Pausing, Yolden continued, "Moreover, the greatest advantage of AI is that it is self-conscious and has the processing power to analyze astronomical proportions of data. As car sales grow, every car owner's driving data will add precious new data to our data vault, and it will be processed by AI for even greater space of imagination."For example, kst's say I experienced a bumpiness along a certain road, and when the sensors pick up on that anomaly, the data will be uploaded to the servers along with images of the road condition in real time. The processing AI module would determine in no time at all that there was damage and label said location on the map, and then forward the data to other vehicles close to that location, sending notifications when they are close enough and providing the appropriate advice for countermeasures."Naturally, the AI can even be refined further so that it immediately warns us to slow down while uploading the data to the servers and informing any cars cl

Yolden's mind short-circuited at those words. "The most advanced AI module?!"He had been working on Wall Street for years, having invested in substantial startup tech companies as well as assisting plenty of Nasdaq tech enterprises with their IPO. That was why he especially had a sharp six sense for cutting-edge technology.It had been a while since he had gotten up the saddle, and AI had just become the trend recently, but he still paid close attention. He was well aware what applications were possible for AI modules, but he was shocked that Charlie already possessed what all the online giants were coveting!Thrilled, he quickly asked Charlie, "Can the Rothschilds resolve all the hardware and software issues? High-processing power display cards are a dime a dozen these days, and local enterprises are all planning to sell them one by one. The demand is just that high!"Charlie chuckled. "Don't worry—the Rothschilds will handle both issues for me, even the data centers. We bought i

Keith, who had been silent throughout, waved him off as he said solemnly, "Please don't sell yourself short, Professor Hart. I'm sure you can do well in this position, but it's still a matter of will."If your heart is truly set on educating future generations, then I'm sure you'd reject our offer no matter what we say."However, if you felt the slightest interest, even anticipation, for such a major project, then you really should consider our offer."We've already invested in Godot Autos for 3 billion USD and over 10 billion if we're counting in Ricebolt. But we still have 30 billion more in capital available—and that means it's 40 billion USD at play."I doubt any other global car maker can afford that much, let alone a new car maker. So, I dare say that this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"Keith's words spoke to Yolden's very soul—a startup capital of forty billion US dollars was certainly unprecedented for electric-powered vehicles. Even Ricebolt had barely garnered ove
